WARNING
–
EXTREME
HAZARD!
Do not use a rearward facing
child restraint on a seat protected
by an airbag in front of it!
The child could be seriously
injured if the airbag inflates, as
the child's head would be very
close to the inflating airbag.
Remember that it is safest for
children to be seated in the rear
seats.
{
Warning
This manual provides you with
general information concerning
child restraints only.
The driver is required by law to
ensure that passengers and pets
are suitably restrained. In most
States and Territories of Australia,
and in New Zealand, specific laws
may exist which require children
to be seated in approved child
restraints and/or in certain
locations within the vehicle.
Holden strongly recommends that
you refer to your specific State or
Territory regulations to determine
which child restraint and seat
location is suitable for your child.
{
Warning
Always ensure that the seat belt
fits firmly around the child
restraint, as applicable to the type
of restraint used.
If a child cannot see out of the
window, do not raise him/her by
means of an ordinary cushion.
It will not stay in place in a
collision and the child can slip out
of the straps and become
entangled.
{
Warning
Always follow the child restraint
manufacturer's fitting instructions
when installing a child restraint
into the vehicle.
